*Treasurer
**Significant purchase - £207.50 SDR (Air Spy)- large amount from SUSU funding
**Spent £200 more this year (Significant chunk from Morse sounder project, and other projects)
**A lot of membership money goes to RSGB (roughly quarter)
**Option 1 -  get more money in by increasing student membership to £15 / staff and alumni £25? Or selling old equipment - better than storing. Should we increase finding for first years?
***We could charge an exam course fee, but this could be controversial?
****Vote:
*****£15 for student members - 12 in favour, no objections
*****£25 for non-student members -  12 in favour, no objections
*****New members £10 - 10 in favour, no objections
**Option 2 - get more funding from SUSU (SOWN Zepler Project) - matched funding
**This year roughly matched for money out and money in
**Option 3 - Sponsorship? Will this be viable?
**Option 4 - Purchase Baofeng Radios in bulk and sell to new members who have just been licensed - need to consider import tax to see if this is a viable option.
*Exams
** No exams this year with Itchen Valley ARC
**High pass rates, good year for exams
**We need to better organise invigilators/instructors next time
***Could have more full-licencees become instructors/ Registered Assessors
